5.3 Adding a System Profile

Chapter 2, Registration discusses registering your system using the Red Hat Network Registration
Client. The Red Hat Network Registration Client steps you through the process and allows you to
customize your system profile. You can also register a system using the Red Hat Network Web Ap-
plication and the Red Hat Network Daemon. The Red Hat Network Web Application only allows you
to define a system name, choose your system architecture, and choose whether or not to include hard-
ware and software information in your system profile. After saving a Digital Certificate from the Red
Hat Network Web Application, the Red Hat Network Daemon initiates a connection from the client
to Red Hat Network to send the desired information to the servers. After this information is sent, the
system appears in your network group. You can then login to the Red Hat Network Web Application
to customize your perferences such as receiving email notifications and excluding packages from your
system profile.
